In Eunike’s presentation slides, she included running text that he prepared. If you look at the slides, on the left side there is a presentation slide that contains bullet points, illustrations and some information. Meanwhile, on the right slide, there is a running text which is rigid. and looks serious. Eunike certainly prepares with great effort so that the presentation can be followed by anyone, including those with hearing impairments, if any.
“I prepared a running text to facilitate participants with hearing disabilities. I’m sorry if the main slide is not full, its maximum size,” said Uenike starting the afternoon discussion.
This time, Eunice conducted research into the social reality and historical and political dynamics of that era by using the perspective of ordinary people. Eunice tracked down by reading the writings of Kwee Thiam Tjing (KTT) and his wife (Nie Hiang Nio) in various printed newspapers in the era before and after independence. The historical approach he uses is a micro-historical approach, namely a historical approach that narrates history from the perspective of ordinary people. Not a big or popular figure.
In this discussion, people with hearing impairments will be able to take part in this interesting discussion without any significant obstacles.
